Cajunlicious: The Cookbook

Today is your chance people to support a fellow food blogger. Yes, SUPPORT. That is what the food blog community is built on right? You cook your food. You photograph your food. You stress and anguish over which photographs to post. Then you hit, POST, sit back and hope that someone in the infinite space vortex that is the internet will drop by your little plot and SUPPORT you.

Jessica C. Wood, who runs the food blog Cajunlicious, has just published her first cookbook. A labor of love that took her eight months to complete. An homage to her family roots which are most definitely, "All Things Cajun."

I found Jessica about a year ago and have been an admirer of hers. I like her style. She's very much like myself, she cooks the food of her youth with passion and verve.

I purchased Cajunlicious, the cookbook, from Jessica's site in January for $24.99 plus shipping. That's it. A big time bargain for all the Cajun cuisine goodness presented in the book.

Thanks for this. I'm missing New Orleans in a big way these days and will check out her site right away. But not before I tell you that your Crawfish Etouffee Lasagne sounds amazing. Might make that this week in fact!

I love how supportive you are of your fellow bloggers :) I recently had some yummy Cajun cuisine, including delicious crawfish etouffe. I LOVE that you used it in lasagna, a brilliant twist on a classic. Great work Lazaro, and thanks for introducing me to Jessica's blog.

Crawfish Etouffee Lasagna~Classic Laz...love it!Jessica, is not only talented but such a fun and sweet person as well. I grew up Creole Chef dad, so Cajun delights highly appeal to me, and she's got the goods :) Wonderful post Laz :)

All recipes are tested by myself in my kitchen. Recipes are guides, not to be taken as law. With that said, these recipes will, within the constraints of equipment used, be replicable to the practicing home cook.

Do not hesitate to ask any question that may arise with any of my recipes. I am always happy to talk food. Contact me at lazarocooks@gmail.com.
